In blood and stool cultures from 90 Black children with kwashiorkor, the commonest organisms isolated were Gram-negative aerobic rods. The mortality rate was highest in the group who developed septicaemia. In patients with negative blood cultures, the outcome was much more favourable, although the majority of them showed evidence of respiratory and/or bowel infections. It is felt that routine antibiotic therapy is advisable in the management of kwashiorkor.
在对90名患有夸希奥科病的黑人儿童进行的血液和粪便培养中，分离出的最常见微生物是革兰氏阴性需氧杆菌。发生败血症的患儿组死亡率最高。血培养结果为阴性的患儿，尽管大多数有呼吸道和/或肠道感染的迹象，但预后要好得多。有人认为，在夸希奥科病的治疗中，常规使用抗生素治疗是可取的。
